Special Care for Glass Beaded Projection Screens

Wednesday, December 13th, 2006

Glass beaded projection screens require special care to prevent it from
becoming damaged or worn out.  A projection screen is an investment and, as
such, care should be taken to ensure that it lasts along time.
Understanding the special needs of a glass beaded projection screen is an
important part of taking care of it.

Glass beaded projection screens are made from tiny glass beads embedded in
the screens surface.  The beads are covered with a transparent layer
coating.  This coating gives some protection to the glass beads, but does
not protect it from everything.  Steps must be taken to care for and to
protect the glass beads from damage.

Glass beaded projection screens cannot be scrubbed and chemicals can not be
used on it.  The screen can only be wiped off with a soft cloth or brush.
This is why it is especially important to ensure that the screen is not
exposed to dirt or other debris.  Even exposure to dust can damage the
fragile glass beads.  It should be dusted often and care should be taken to
limit its exposure to dust or other debris.

A glass beaded screen should be taken care of more in a preventative
measure.  Due to the construction of the glass beaded design, this type of
projection screen can not be cleaned like other screens.  The key to good
care of a glass beaded projection screen is to prevent dirt and other debris
from gathering on the screens surface and to prevent dust build up.
